-North Mo | Had a heifer come up preg when wasn't suppose to, really intended to keep her as a replacement as linage from foundation genetics within my cows - left her bred, mostly due to vet concern with term and procrastination. She calved yesterday, her age 13 and 7 days, 50ish lb heifer calf unassisted, found her with calf nursing at side. Kinda had first figured would be lucky to save her, dry her up and maybe rebreed her to be retained. Now with this calf here live and well not sure what to do. If I leave as is figure can't feed her well enough to keep her from getting stunned, reluctant to just pull and bottle/sell the calf, maybe let her raise the calf then feed her for a butcher??
